Nothing says "responsibility" like Paris Hilton. This prom season, the socialite's naked "corpse" will be used as an educational tool for teens getting ready for the big dance. The "corpse" was created by Daniel Edwards, who Hilton herself had reportedly commissioned to create a sculpture of her for Los Angeles' Sunset Strip. This probably isn't what she had in mind. The interactive PSA will be a life-sized replica of Hilton (with her privelaged pup Tinkerbell)......

THEATER: Pot-au-Noir (The Black Hole) is a retelling of the story of Cain & Abel "through the lens of the Great American Myth -- combining images of Hollywood Film Noir, the Gold Rush, the Dust Bowl, and Manifest Destiny with a story that is at the core of Judaism, Christianity and Islam and, therefore, America." Jake Hooker’s new production promises lyrical text, contemporary dance and live music to tell a story of lies, deceit, jealousy,......

Now this is a great idea. If you are at all like us, and we suspect you are a bit, you like and appreciate good art. Since we were wee we certainly have. And someday when our ship comes in we'd even like to maybe own some. We know we'd keep said art in good condition and display it nicely, we just don't have the bank or the art-know-how to get to that point......

If you've ever wanted to see Britney Spears naked, now's your chance (at least until a tape of her having sex comes out) and all in the name of art. One minor detail, it's a sculpture and she's birthing. On the plus side, it's life size. The artwork is coming to Williamsburg for a two week show at Capla Kestin Fine Art. The piece, titled "Monument to Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston," supposedly celebrates......

This kind of weather makes us want to do one thing, and one thing only: walk through the snow filled streets with a hot chocolate in one hand and John Cusack in the other. Mmm...serendipitous.

Here are some suggestions to get you out of the house......
